Revlon: Urban and Heavenly

Hi everyone,

I was looking at different glitter polishes online before buying "Inner Sparkle" from the Nicole by OPI Selena Gomez collection.  I came across some pictures from Revlon.  Since new collections come later to Canada or not at all, I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to get any at all.  One day at Walmart, I found the display and I got really excited so I bought three polishes.

I shot these pictures at night, so there's a lot of flash in these.  Since this is my third post, I'm beginning to see that there are so many things that show up in these pictures that I didn't realize before I decided to try to blog about my nail polish.  Excuse those please :).

Thoughts:

I had originally did this look for my birthday.  I really liked it but I only wore it for three days.  I tried to use thin coats but somehow I end up painting heavy handed and needing that extra paint.  I felt this was especially true for the Urban (navy polish).  Maybe it's me or the brush but it was a bit more difficult for me to stay on my nail.

Heavenly (glitter): I really liked this.  I didn't think I would because I wasn't going to buy this originally.  The glitter consists of hexagon and square glitter.  The consistency of this glitter polish wasn't bad.  Pretty thick but I found it easy to spread the glitter around my nail.  Over Urban, it definitely made Heavenly look iridescent.

Breakdown:
Base coat: Revlon Multi care base + top coat
